rices around here were high, it wasn’t too hard for her to rent a unit.
“Of course I do!” Liu Manhong nodded right away.
“I even have a few!”
Xia Xibei was surprised.
She was one wealthy landlord indeed! She even had a few houses!
“If you don’t wish to rent a house here, I could help you find another place,” Qiao Yanjue added along.
“Erm… I don’t want to cause you anymore trouble…” Xia Xibei said hesitantly.
“You won’t,” Qiao Yanjue chuckled.
“Strictly speaking, you’re my cousin now.”
Xia Xibei’s lips twitched.
“Cousin… You know what’s actually going on.”
This was nothing more than a temporary expedient.
In a few months, she would no longer need a custodian and would be able to make decisions on her own.
Besides, she had never thought of becoming cousins with Qiao Yanjue someday— although they weren’t biologically related.
Even though she knew that the Qiao Yanjue standing before her was different from the cold-blooded, cruel Master Jue that he would become in a few years, it still felt strange for her to become his sister.
But Liu Manhong spoke up, “What do you have to worry about? You guys are cousins for now! If you need anything, just tell your brother and he’ll help you out!”
“I…”
“There’s no such thing as you or me.
We’re family now!”
Although Liu Manhong appeared young, her actual age wasn’t so young anymore.
Besides, she wasn’t a gullible person.
She had a beauty salon chain in one hand and a few cinemas in the other, making her a very rich woman!
Although she had received help from the Qiao family, she wasn’t someone without solid skills either.
She seemed like a generous, frank woman, but she wouldn’t usually pour her heart out to strangers.
She had only accepted Xia Xibei for Qiao Yanjue’s sake.
However, she became fond of this “daughter” right after meeting her.
How she wished she had given birth to this adorable, gorgeous child!
Xia Xibei couldn’t refuse anymore hearing what Liu Manhong said.
Also, it was quite pleasant to live here.
Therefore, she nodded, “Thanks a lot, you guys.”
